Google off line maps are ok for city dwellers but they are limited to a small area and once you get onto bush tracks it shows nothing compared with topos. My NSW topos (which i use for work and recreation) take up about 50GB or so.
I downloaded a single season of a TV show the other week which was 22GB.... sure i could go a lower resolution or only download part of it but with an SD card i don't need to.
Like i said, if the micro SD card wasn't important / wanted then Samsung wouldn't be reducing their profit margins to include it on the S7 / GN6.

Who needs to store maps on their phone? You can save them as favorite to Google map or store as offline maps with Here app.
Who needs to store HD videos in phone when they are very seldom watched/used? Might as well store them in cloud or HDD.
Photos will not consume even 32GB of memory.
64GB is more than enough for a SMART user.

AnonD-77443, 24 Feb 2016While i'd like to see the GN6 with a 4000 mAh battery i think it will be somewhere around 3500... moreWhat? 4000mAh battery for a flagship phone with 5.7" screen?
Lenovo got 4000mAh battery for their midrange phone with only 5.1" screen to feed.
It's good you are not one of the Samsung technical engineer, otherwise, the company will shutdown!
Why don't you produce your own phone and let us see if you will top the industry?
Good luck plastic phone fan.

I think the GN6 will have IP68.... Samsung released a phone with a waterproof micro usb last year so I'm sure it could be done with the S-pen.
(yes Tcool, i will stop talking about the GN6 here as soon as GSMarena has a opinions page for the GN6... in the mean time just ignore people who want better phone than the disappointing GN5)

Don't over... moreThey will restore the micro SD slot and increase the battery hopefully at elast 4000mah, though it is still fixed, may not have IP68 due to spen, but it's ok, note is truly for multitasking, reading, writing, drawing, calculating, i can't wait for note6, maybe i can wait for Note5 to drop the price

32GB + 200GB is better than 32 or 64 any day. 32 is plenty to store apps with good performance, 200 is used to store maps, photos, videos, etc etc

I bought two note 5 - single sim and another one Duos. Single Sim started giving problems on first day - screen went blank and never returned back. Fortunately, got replacement however the display of the Duos is brighter and screen is much white as compared to single sim. Is anyone facing same issue or can assist by commenting?

If you want to make your next Note 6 good in public. Do it in good ... moreMaybe you should go to the hospital.
Whining child.
If you're such a talented person, mind your own business, design your own product, sell it for next to nothing, then you'll be everybody's favourite phone maker.

Rd, 23 Feb 2016Bro, cool down. VR is offered because i believe this is a failure Architecture.
Consider fi... moreVR headsets using the phone screen is the only reason to have greater than 500 pixels per inch.
This is the killer feature for a screen this beautiful.
Also OLED blackness (drool)!
Radiation? Can turn aerial off....
Battery exploding? -I think you are reaching here...
But these VR headsets use the screen of the phone(not usb-c output, for 'video output'I am guessing is what you are saying here) to save cost.
Heavy isn't the factor to worry about, although 'leverage' concerns me... (The weight being further from our centre of balance), with vr sets comfort is important.
I have a set of Sony hmd-t3w and they do me fine for half hour play sessions of dirt rally.
Not comfortable enough even lying down to truly enjoy movies etc, though a lot of people mod them for extra comfort.
I like these oculus vr sets that are cheap and use the phone screen, good work Sammy.
Oh and I believe they allow a 'pass through' (using the phone camera to show 'real world' on the screen)
People probably wouldn't know when you were watching them.... Might even get it back to front and think you are watching them when in fact you are sitting in a vr cinema!

Tcool, 23 Feb 2016How about Sony VR, Alcatel VR and HTC VR?
Why would they follow if it is a "failure Architecture"?Bro they sure are bound to change. I would call them prototyoe.
Because change is the name of the game if they have to survive.
LG implemented the right way bro.

Tcool, 23 Feb 2016Ow really? "failure Architecture"?
Then why the HTC, LG and even Apple manufacture VR headset... moreBro, again cool down.
Instead of countering, can you provide answer as to why fixing smartphone on head is good enough..

You are the who is "sour grapes" about the success of premium Note 5 even without SD card and removable battery.
Otherwise you won't stay on this page being insulted. Such a shame!
Oh by the way Note 6 for sure will have your favorite "fragile" glass body and non removable battery. Good luck!

Do some research troll before you post rubbish reply.

For smart users, 64GB is more than enough.
And how is the "fragile" glass body you use to ridicule?
Now its back in your face! And for sure with Note 6.
